Janauary Acquisitions

Nothing Bad Ever Happens in Tiffany's, by Marian Keyes; His Immortal Embrace, by Hannah Howell, Lynsey Sands, Sara Blayne, and Kate Huntington; Petals on the Wind, by V.C. Andrews - I read Flowers in the Attic not too long ago, and then discovered that I had already given away my copy of Petals!

Confessions of a Jane Austen Addict, and Rude Awakenings of a Jane Austen Addict, by Laurie Viera Rigler; The Bite Before Christmas, by Lynsey Sands

My daughters gave me a Half Price Books gift card for Christmas, and I found lots of good books there. I used the entire card in one trip!

For a Few Demons More and The Outlaw Demons Wails, by Kim Harrison - I really need to get caught up on this series; Hollywood, by Larry McMurtry

By Sorrow's River; The Desert Rose; and The Wandering Hill, by Larry McMurtry - I've only read one of his books, Lonesome Dove, but it was so incredible I want to read everything he's written!

Outlaw Bride, by Jenna Kernan - another author I've only read one book by (Turner's Woman), but I really enjoyed it; Primal Desires, by Susan Sizemore - I've only read the first in this series so far; Hope for Animals and Their World, by Jane Goodall

Welcome To My Blog!

I love books. I have over five thousand books, yet I do not have enough. I'm probably not the most reliable reviewer as I don't often come across anything I don't like, and a lot of what I read is not current. If you are looking for insightful or critical reviews, look somewhere else. These are not so much reviews as my thoughts on the books I read.

The views and opinions expressed on this blog are purely my own. I have not and do not intend to receive paid compensation from this blog. However, I have and will accept free books from any source willing to provide them. Regardless, my review of any such book will never be based on the fact that it was given to me for free. My review will always be my honest opinion of the book. If I feel that I cannot provide an honest opinion/review of a particular book, I will not provide a review at all. The majority of the books I review come from my own extensive personal library. I obtain books through many sources. I purchase books at library sales, thrift stores, used book stores, online retailers, and occasionally from an actual brick-and-mortar new book store (though the nearest one to my home is about ten miles away). I also get some books through NetGalley, and I enter giveaways on Goodreads and through various publisher's websites and/or newsletters. In addition to Goodreads, I am a member of BookCrossing.com and BookMooch.com, where I trade books with other members. I also trade with and/or receive books from my mother and sister, as well as occasionally from other family members or friends, who all know they can dump pretty much any unwanted book on me.
